"With our strength, we should try exploring."

"Even if we encounter danger, we’ll retreat immediately."

Upon hearing Shen Yun’s suggestion,

everyone pondered for a moment, then looked towards Han Xing and nodded.

Han Xing contemplated seriously for a moment.

Then said, "Okay, let’s go in and take a look."

"If it’s not feasible, we’ll retreat right away."

Everyone’s faces showed a smile.

Although, we don’t know what’s inside yet.

But the long-standing tacit understanding lets them trust each other.

No matter what danger they encounter, they can overcome it together.

Next, six people and a wolf, plus a slime, began to enter this giant ice cave.

The slime still led the way at the front.

Then everyone followed behind.

As soon as they entered the frozen area,

their bodies were instantly covered by a layer of frost.

System alerts appeared.

[You’ve been invaded by Extreme Cold Qi, current negative state stacked up to 5 layers.]

Han Xing frowned slightly.

Just upon entering, he was stacked with 5 layers of ’Extreme Cold Erosion.’

How many layers would it stack if they went further in?

Is this the danger inside the frozen area?

After advancing about five or six kilometers,

Han Xing and the others finally knew what the danger inside was.

It was an extremely terrifying cold air, capable of freezing everything!

Everyone simultaneously heard the system alert of ’Extreme Cold Erosion’ negative state stacking up to 10 layers.

"So... so cold..." Cheng Jianyong said shivering, as if he had been completely numbed by the cold.

The others were also not feeling well.

Their bodies were frozen stiff, even their blood felt intensely cold.

Shen Yun continuously released the Purification Technique at the side.

However, the relentless chill here was enough to freeze ordinary legendary powerhouses.

It could be said to be a dead end for living beings.

Even the Purification Technique struggled to keep up with the stacking speed of ’Extreme Cold Erosion.’

Han Xing immediately said, "Release Divine Power Domain to resist the erosion of the cold current."

Everyone complied upon hearing this.

However, they discovered that their divine power was instantly frozen upon release.

The intense pain swept through their bodies!

"Oh, is it this outrageous?" Cheng Jianyong asked incredulously.

The others also inhaled sharply.

Even divine power being frozen was something they never encountered before.

At this rate, they could only stop here!

And at this moment,

Shen Yun raised the Holy Hammer high, its tip radiating bright white light.

The intense Holy Light instantly illuminated the entire ice cave.

Its warm aura instantly dispelled the chill from their bodies, from the inside out!

It was his Church Secret Technique—Holy Light Shines.

"Brother Xing, Holy Light Shines can still last a while, let’s move forward," Shen Yun said while holding the Holy Hammer.

Han Xing nodded upon hearing this.

Then, they proceeded deeper into the frozen area.

They advanced for about two more kilometers.

They all felt completely frozen stiff.

Shen Yun’s Sun duration ended as well.

Everyone felt an intense chill throughout their bodies.

"We’ve reached the limit. Going further, we might end up frozen to death like that Bear Spirit," Han Xing said helplessly.

Cheng Jianyong echoed, "Indeed, this should be the limit."

"We should head back."

Everyone’s faces showed a bit of helplessness.

The terror of this ice cave had truly exceeded their expectations.

At this moment, Han Xing glanced at the Frost Slime ahead.

Only to find that it was also frozen stiff in place.

Han Xing said speechlessly, "What the heck, aren’t you a Frost Slime?"

"Even you can be frozen stiff?"

A moment later, Han Xing heard a voice of grievance in his ear.

"Master... this isn’t a simple chill, but a force targeting the legendary."

"This situation never happened before..."

Upon hearing this, Han Xing slightly furrowed his brow.

It seems they came at the wrong time.

Though reluctant, they had no choice but to temporarily give up.

They would return to explore when their strength is greater in the future.

Just as everyone was about to turn back,

a faint divine power fluctuation was felt inside.

This fluctuation was unlike that cold air.

After it swept across them, it didn’t cause any unusual effects.

At this moment, Han Xing and the others heard a system alert simultaneously.

[Target detected, verifying identity...]

[Race: Human Race (Confirmed), Power: Legend (Confirmed), lifting extreme cold restriction...]

Upon hearing this alert, everyone’s eyes lit up.

They distinctly felt that the cold air from deep within the ice cave had stopped.

Everyone sighed in relief as their almost-frozen bodies came back to life.

The five of them exchanged glances and simultaneously revealed a smile.

Beside them, the High Priest was confused.

He wasn’t from the Human Race and didn’t hear Han Xing’s system alert.

But he also felt the disappearance of the frightful chill in the ice cave.

"It seems... there’s always a way out!"

Han Xing smiled and said, "Sounds like this is a place of opportunity specially left for us Humans."

"Let’s go in!"

With those words,

Han Xing led the way, heading deeper into the frozen area.

Everyone followed closely behind.

After about ten minutes,

they advanced over ten thousand meters.

Finally,

they reached the deepest part of the ice cave.

Here, a huge icy cavern suddenly appeared.

The space inside was extremely vast.

The ice-formed walls appeared incredibly smooth.

At the top of the cavern, Han Xing saw several glowing ’Extreme Ice Divine Stones.’
